I brought home my Tegu just about a week ago. He is between 10-12 inches. He is currently in a 4 ft enclosure. Basking area temp is right around 110 cool side is around 75-80 during the day. I have supplied multiple hides. I have struggled to maintain humidity above 70% i saturate the substrate at least twice a day using a pump mister. Are there any tips to maintaining humidity?
Also over the past couple days, he has spent 80% of the day burrowed, are there any tips to enticing him to come out short of digging him out? (Which I have read is not a great idea) or is this normal behavior that will come and go? I have also posted pictures of the enclosure to see if there is anything I am doing wrong that is causing him to not feel comfortable in his enclosure.
